NO LONGER LIVE, BUT IT MAY BE IN THE FUTURE! 
Hey guys, you may have noticed I've been a bit lax on writing the poem requests, however, I'll be in google docs for an hour or more working on your poem requests here: docs.google.com/document/d/130… Come in and have a look, even make suggestions! Beware of my slow typing! 
A little while ago betwixtthepages posted this awesome journal where she wrote poems upon request, which may or may not have been an idea gleaned from elsewhere.
But, I've been burning through topics to write on lately, and when writing fixed form poetry, having the topic in mind is a must, and I've also been on a fixed form poetry binge lately. So here's how this is going to go down:
What do you have to do?
- Comment on this journal
- Give me an idea what you'd like the poem to be about. It's my job to write it, but I must be clear on what you want!
- Choose a fixed form you want the poem to be written in. I may ask you to choose a shorter form.
- Mention any other pertinent information/specifics (i.e. 'use these words' or 'write in a specific meter')
If you're clueless about fixed forms, check out BeccaJS' A-Z of Poetry Forms! and have a look around.
PE: Poetry Forms- An A-Z An A-Z of Poetry Forms!
Hello!
To kick start this week at projecteducate, we're starting off with a slightly lighter-hearted article listing just some of the poetic forms that exist out there. Lets be honest, there are hundreds and we can't list every single one. This is just a slice of the forms out there and if you are wishing to expand your understanding of different forms, do some research and don't take this as gospel!
Each form has a direct link to a site that describes the form in more detail, usually with examples too. I have also included some good examples from dA when I have found them.
Yes some of these link to wikipedia!

ABC- A poem where each word, line or stanza starts with the next continuous letter of the alphabet. Also known as an "Abcedarian"

Also take a look at formfindsfunction, Fixed-Form-Poetry and Crowns-of-Sonnets for other form ideas.

Quick Question
Would anyone be upset if I posted some of my shibari photography here? I mainly use this account for writing because well, I'm mainly a writer to begin with, but tying people up (with consent) to make fun and beautiful designs has become a hobby of mine as well and the site redesign is not friendly to writers anymore. It's a fun way to spend time with someone I love and indulge in my artistic side. As of now, the photos just sit on mine and all my partners' google drives. Here's an example of the kind of photography I do with these photoshoots. Let me know. I'd like to share but if you guys are uninterested or don't want it, I see no need to bother you, but I'd love to share. Nic
Coronavirus Creativity
Hey guys, it's been a while. I never stopped lurking around here, but I did stop posting. I kept writing and creating but a lot of my creative energies have gone to projects that either don't work well here (the past two years I've spent learning music theory, guitar, and rapping/singing quite intensely). Any other energy I wasn't spending on my album I had was spent on work, learning programming because I want to switch to that career field, my fiancee and our wedding, and writing bitlets. Guys, I have over 600 bitlets. What do I do with all of these micropoems? Granted, a lot of them have gone on to be full-fledged works of literature.

Hullo World
What's up guys, it's Nic. I've been busy, lotsa life changes, including becoming a lurker on deviantART, something I never would have expected of myself. My life is changing, for the last year or so I have been working two part-time jobs to make ends meet, and with the help of my family I have kicked debt's butt and am starting school for programming.
I'm excited to develop my knowledge with code, and with the savings I have, I am about to cut down my hours at one job in favor of starting a website of some kind and building it up into something I can make money from as I go to school. I'm a bit paralyzed as to what the website should be abou
Weddingmania
Hullo, dA, long time, no talk. I never really stopped keeping tabs on this place, but I reduced myself to mostly lurking for the last year or so. I've been writing, wedding planning, and otherwise keeping busy.
If anybody followed me before my stream of updates ended, you might have read I ran a pizza chain. I have moved on from that now and started working with special needs kids at the suggestion of a former coworker to supplement my income while I looked for a new job with my skillset. I still haven't found anything, but I'm being very picky. My last job absorbed my life with very little benefit, and now that I've stepped away from that,
